Summary/Abstract: The lack and the closed character of the archive material from the World War II period in the Soviet archives attracted to a great extent many researchers who study Yugoslav-Soviet relations to have a closer look at the Soviet newspapers and periodicals and some other similar sources. They are, fortunately, quite prolific, and many things were preserved and available for use. It is clearly seen from these sources that the Soviet public during World War II, and especially after the German attack on Soviet Union on June 22, 1941, maintained a close interest and followed continually the situation at the Balkans. It gave a special and important place to the antifascist struggle of the peoples and nationalities of Yugoslavia and raised them in a high esteem.
